Operators

Over a dozen nations have classes of vessels based on the Damen Stan 4207 patrol vessel design, including:

Some variants are equipped with deck guns, while others are equipped for peacetime duties like search and rescue, fishery protection, environmental monitoring, or intercepting smugglers.[21]

Building to standard designs (known as Standard Patrol or SPa), Damen's construction process enables vessels to be fabricated in virtual kit form and assembled and integrated in a relatively short space of time.
